NEW ENGLAND BREEDERS Asso-
cIATIoN.
The List of Colts Entered by Maine
Men.

The stakes opened by the executive COM
mittee of the New England Trotting Horse
Breeders, to be trotted for next fall, closed
on the 3lst ult. A comparison of the entries
to the stakes of the National Breeders Asso-
citation and those of other stakes shows that
the entries of the New England Association
are fully up to the average Of other older
organizations. The stake for stations that
had never beaten 2.25, for some reason, failed
to fill, but it is pretty certain that most of
the stations owned in New England, to-
gether with several Of the get of each, will
be on exhibition at the coming meeting
the stakes, among which we note the follow
ing from Maine:
